How the soul who makes the Divine Will live within herself sets divine joys and beatitudes in motion.


I felt immersed in the Holy Will of God, and my sweet Jesus, drawing me to Himself, squeezed me very tightly in His arms, and then He said to me: "My daughter, oh how beautiful is my rest in the soul who has my Will as life, and who lets my Will act and love, entirely and completely, within her! You must know that as the soul breathes, palpitates, works, thinks, loves, acts, even though everything is carried out within her, since my Will has become the center of life in her, it is my Will that breathes, palpitates, loves, thinks, acts, gives motion to her work, circulation to her blood, thought to her mind, love to her heart, and the like. Now, since this Will is the same as the one which the Three Divine Persons have, it happens that They feel within Them the breath of the soul, her heartbeat, her motion. And since every time Our Will decides to form one act, It releases from Us new joys, new beatitudes, new happinesses which, harmonizing everything among the Three Divine Persons, form immense seas of new happiness, and enwrapping all the Blessed, these remain enraptured within these joys, and are shaken by this rapture; and while they are shaken, they remain enraptured more strongly within Our immeasurable beatitudes – using Our Will, she wants to form more acts of Will to make Us happy and to make Us release more beatitudes. Now, the soul who lets Our Will live within her, reaches such a point that, as she lets It operate, she gives Us the occasion to set Our beatitudes, Our harmonies and the infinite joys of Our Love, in motion. She makes Us release new beauties and new glories of Ours,

Our Will operating in the creature is so very pleasing, tender and lovable to Us; It makes Us new surprises; It sets Our things in motion in order to give Us the return of Our glory, of Our Love, of Our happinesses - and all this, through the creature who has given the place within herself to let Our Will live. How not to love this birth from Our Will? More so, since Our Will renders this creature more lovable, gracious, beautiful to Us, in such a way that in no one else do we find her qualities. She is a work done by Our Will, with such mastery as to enchant all of Heaven, and to render her lovable to all – and even more so, to the Sacrosanct Trinity."

And while He was saying this, He squeezed me more tightly, and letting me place my mouth in His Heart, He added: "You too - drink Our beatitudes in large gulps. Satiate yourself, in the way you want, and as much as you want."
